Dendritic Identifiers and AR/XR in assembly and maintenance operations

Our project utilizes smart glasses, a 2 stage computer vision technique, and Google Cloud services to locate and identify dendritic structures. These dendritic structures can take the place of barcodes or similar identification methods and reduce counterfeit parts in major industries like aviation, medical, and automotive. Unlike barcodes and serial numbers, it is nearly impossible…

Dendritic Identifier Authentication Device

The project was to build a complete verification system using and verifying unique Dendritic Identifiers. The project entailed a camera, lighting, and software that would work together to achieve dendritic identification and verification.

Poo-mba!

Poomba is an autonomous robotic pooper-scooper designed to keep dog parks clean using computer vision and intelligent navigation. Our system combines a Raspberry Pi 5, custom VEX-based chassis, motor control, sensors, and an Edge Impulse object-detection model to identify and collect waste in real time. The goal is to deliver a fast, lightweight, low-cost robot…

Wearable Electronic Bandage to Improve Efficacy of Vaccine Delivery

Our device is designed to achieve electroporation of the skin allowing for effective vaccine absorption. Electroporation is achieved by delivering high voltage electrical pulses to the skin to generate pulsed electric fields (PEF) within the tissue.

Raytheon Humanitarian Relief UAS

Our team developed a fully autonomous UAS capable of flying 20 miles while providing real-time telemetry throughout the mission. Designed for humanitarian relief, it can deliver supplies to areas affected by natural disasters where access is limited or infrastructure is damaged. The system is modular and built from off-the-shelf components to keep costs low and…

On-Demand Customizable Manufacturing of Hernia Repair Meshes: Feasibility of 3D Printing with MSLA

Hernia repair is one of the most common procedures worldwise, with over 20 million performed every year, close to 1 million alone in the united states. Current off-the-shelf heria meshes are limited by fixed sizes, variable pore structures, and inconsistent conformity, contributing to higher recurrence, discomfort, and complication rates. However, hospitals experience significant waste when…

90nm I/O Characterization PCB Design

Characterizing GPIOs

The team was tasked to develop and implement a test bench by Certus Semiconductor for their ASICs. Using various python packages, an asynchronous test bench was developed; key components include a waveform generator, Raspberry Pi Pico, Oscilloscopes, DC power supply, and a function generator. The instruments are connected via Gpib and Micro USB, all connected…
